Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know.
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the lord.

Sending my condolences to my Edwards family. Uncle Clarence will surely be missed. I will never forget how he would stop by and visit me when he would come to NC from NY. I was just reminiscing not long ago about the stories I was told about some of the adventures him and my other Uncle Clarence Mayo would go on together. I was blessed to have two Uncle Clarence that cared about me. May they both rest in peace. Love and Peace from Tonia Chaney & Family
